ERTICO in partnership with ETSI and with the support of ETSI TC MSG and ITS Europe has organized the sixth eCall TESTFEST event, which took place from 9 to 13 October 2017, in Kranj, Slovenia. This event was hosted by SINTESIO in cooperation with Iskratel, Public Administration and Telekom Slovenije.

This year's event addressed key cybersecurity standardization challenges in the short, medium and longer term. The event looked at the different aspects of cybersecurity underpinning our digital world.

Our industry is buzzing with excitement about 5G. We have read the requirements, both high-level and more detailed. We have pored over the numerous white papers. Standardization plans have been carefully set and work is already progressing. But we have mainly focused on the radio technologies needed for 5G. What about the network behind the radio access system? How will the 5G network infrastructure help to meet the overall 5G system requirements, and is it even fit for purpose?

The ETSI summit on 5G Network Infrastructure will take place on 6 April 2017 in ETSI, Sophia Antipolis, France. REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED.

From 13 June 2016, European Union Member States will apply new rules for placing radio equipment on the European market and putting them into service. The new Radio Equipment Directive will apply to much more equipment than its predecessor: anything which used radio for communications will need to meet these new requirements to be placed on the market in the EU. This webinar will explain how industry can access the EU market using ETSI “Harmonised Standards”, and how the standards provide a technical base line for National authorities to ensure a level playing field in Europe.
